[IC] Living in Aincrad: a SAO RP

[Jangel13]

Angelo grinned seeing he got almost enough xp to level up again and he smiled at the new guy shaking his hand "names Angelo Ortega here. No offense but ill keep to my screen name for a while. nice katana skills" Angelo said smiling putting his spear away and counting his col to see he had just a little more now and could even help out his friend if he's new to the game just like paka did. Although now Angelo was wondering what happened to those guys, but times change apparently and he could have a partner now " so tell me why you haven't gotten a group yet, that is if you don't mind me asking I really don't want to pry"

Ayame smiled a bit as she finished cooking the last of the food for that morning's breakfast. Eggs (scrambled, fried and hard boiled), pancakes, some cuts of bacon (which came from frenzy boars, which admittedly made it kind of gamey) and some fruit juice. Smiling at her handiwork, Ayame placed all the food onto a platter and brought it out of the kitchen to the rest of the party. Placing it in front of everyone present, Ayame swiftly handed out some plates, forks and knives to everyone there before taking a seat at the table.
"Eat up, everyone~! I've made sure to triple check the taste this time- Only thing that might be different from what you're used to is the syrup for the pancakes... Assuming you've had them before, of course."
Looking at the others, Ayame waited for a response before eating anything of her own.

Yui

The young Timi was about to fall asleep next to her on the bench they were sitting on. Yui didnt want to make the cute girl fall of the chair if she did fall asleep and leaded her head slowly to her lap for some comfort. She couldnt take her eyes of the cute girl sleeping on her lap. The calm breathing of the tiny body made Yui a bit tired herself. With some struggle she moved the girl on her back for a piggy back ride and headed yp the stairs towards the rooms while saying goodnight to the others down stairs. Timi didnt feel heavy at all but the stairs where only a bit of a problem she never gave anyone a piggyback ride before and with her leg in bad shape. But she still managed to climb the stairs with some struggle. She placed Timi into her own bed, giving her a gentle kiss on the forehead and headed towards her own bed short after, trying to get some sleep. She pulled out the menu to go change into her pyjama's and turned of the light making her instatly scared. She couldnt sleep she needed some lights source but the place would just burn down if she used a candle. She could hear everyone coming upstairs one by one and headed down stairs a few houres latter into the night to comfort herself with some light and food. She headed up again and fell asleep eventually because of not being able to sleep the past few days.

The morning sound of birds on the roofs of the city was sounding through her slightly open windown. Opening her eyes she could feel her whole body drounched in sweat. She quickly sat upright as she could feel the sweat moving all over her body it felt... gross. She was breathing heavily making her chest pump up and down rapidly. Her eyes looked down at her hands to see she was trembeling a whole lot more then the nights before. She looked around to see the sunlight shine brightly through her window. A sigh of relieve sounded as she unbuttoned some of her upped pyjama buttons to cool down from the heat. The sweat slowly dripped down from her face onto her upper chest. She got up out of her bed and headed towards the room that was suppose to be the bathroom and cleaned the sweat a bit with a wet towel.

After some struggeling with the stairs like usual she got down to the lounge area not being bothered by the other people sitting in the lounge. Everyone already seemed freshly awake and concentrated on the breakfast that probably Ayame made. She sat down still in her pyjama's with the upper buttons unbuttoned she tiredly muttered "Goodmorning" while giving a wide yawn afterwards. She didnt even sit down two seconds and a plate with some delicious food was placed in front of her on the table. She looked down towards the plate making some of her ruffled hair fall in front of her face. The smell of fresh flesh could be smelled from the bacon and the egg completely finished the product but there was also pancakes placed right next to it which made it even more tasty looking. Drool almost started spilling from her mouth just looking at the five star menu. She took out a knife and fork and didnt hesitate to eat the whole thing. She rapidly placed food in her mouth but stopped halfway and turned her head sideways to Ayame "Ayame, This is delicious" she sayed with the food still in her mouth. Yui continued eating the food while happily humming a song. While moving her head from side to side.

Suki was annoyed as she made sure Timi was okay, giving the girl a hug and a reassuring "you don't need to worry about them anymore" before sitting down at the table with the others, looking up as Ayame brought them breakfast out "thank you" she said to her, smiling at Yui, when the girl came downstairs still in her pajamas, "thank you for looking after Timi last night. I hope she wasn't too much trouble" she said, giving Timi some food.

Timi, who had been surviving on bread and cheese mostly, stared at the food as if she hadn't seen anything so delious and began to devour the food eagerly, and Suki smiled. Suki started on her own food, agreeing with Yui that it tasted good.

Suki thought on what They would do today and she frowned, remembering the PM earlier, "I think if we go to meet at the labyrinth, we should suggest that we all take a few days, and train. And plan. We can't just rush in there after all" she said, as she nudged some eggs onto some toast, and ate it, thinking deeply. "So far, even the betas are stumped what to do, it seems. Some things are the same, they've said, while others are completely different so..." She trailed of and shruggedc finishing her food.

Sanshain thought, he had to answer. He sighed, "I can't find anybody willing to put up with me." He said looking away. "It's not that I'm a bad person. It's just that I don't like to talk much. Every since I was little I've been that way. And, video games have kind of changed things for me. I find myself stronger and more confident in video games. And, that's probably why I'm talking so much now. If that makes any sense." Sanshain looked back at Angelo. "Sorry if that didn't make sense. And, if you don't want to be in a group that's okay. But, team work is something you need to survive, and you look like you can handle yourself really well." Sanshain smiled and put his hand on Angelo's shoulder. "So, what do you say, team?"

Angelo nodded at his explanation in all honesty it was almost the same for Angelo since in the real world he hardly did anything since he had back problems but here he was free to move the way wants without pain. The guy was good with a katana and at the very least Angelo needed a partner in crime and speaking of which Angelo probably should tell the person that he did steal from people before but now he went straight but Angelo didn't want to bring it up for fear the guy would want nothing to do with him so Angelo nodded "just try and stop me" Angelo said agreeing to be his team mate on the battle field "for now its just you and me getting stronger and better"

[FujiwaraPhoenix]

Ayame laughed a bit as she watched Yui and Timi jump straight into their meals, and seeing them so carefree reminded her that it wasn't just themselves that the group was fighting for. Her research for a project she had done had shown that the primary demographic that games were marketed for and the video game players thrmselves didn't always match up. There were young children in thi game who were unable to fight themselves, which meant that they were also fighting so save the lives of those who were helplessly thrust into a situation that they couldn't have foretold. Pushing hat demoralizing thought aside, Ayame started to eat as well. It wasn't exactly what she had been used to at home (a bowl of rice every morning was pretty decent for a meal), but at the same time the taste felt... Well, different, like what Fujiwara's parents had made when they had come over for trips every now and then. It made her slightly nostalgic, but at the same time it reminded her of the incident that happened just a little while ago. As Yui thanked her, Ayame smiled in returned and nodded.
"It's no problem at all. Everything's either free from grinding or cheap from the markets right now, so given enough time it'll only get better! Something to look forward too, right?" she said before turning to Suki and beginning to speak.
"That does make the most sense, but at the same time grouping up to rapidly map out the dungeon makes things easier when mapping a quick route to the boss. If we spend today grinding through the dungeon's final floor, it'll be easier to map a quicker route to the end. Moving as a large group also means less inherent risk- it's harder to wipe a group of 30 than it is to wipe a group of 6 or 7." she said as she continued eating. "I'm not exactly an experienced gamer, but I'd thinl that unless the monsters are somehow able to swarm us like locusts and wipe us all we'd lose a lot less by mapping as a group. Fighting the boss would be an entirely different story, however. THAT I would recommend leveling until you can't level anymore, and even then..."

[Little_ninja]

With the food coming out and Suki and Timi coming back, Umichi asked the two, "What was happening outside?" Yui came down and started eating, and all the girls started eating. "Eat up Paka, it will probably be a long day. That's the feeling I have. Best to eat whenever we can." Umichi told Paka before clapping his hands together. "Itadakimasu!" He started to eat. The food was good. It still wasn't quite the same as what it looked, but much closer than last night's .... dinner? "It's good Ayame. Much closer to bacon and eggs than that ... meat dessert stew?" He ended up questioning what it was that he ate. It wasn't that it was bad, but ... more so confusing, what he ate last night. "I mean, it wasn't bad, just confusing in taste you know?" trying to defend himself.

Everyone started to talk about the plan. "Seems you are quite the planner Ayame, however, there are a number of faults. First of all, we will surely be meeting a number of parties at the entrance to the Labyrinth. However, the chances are no two parties will stay together. Each level of the labyrinth is bigger and more complex. It is incredibly inefficient to move together as a whole group on the 20th level. Think about this whole floor, it's a fairly big place, right? Try get from the Town of Beginnings to Tolbana, with a maze in between with a group of 30+ people. It would take far too long.

It is likely that each and every party will be lead by their leader in a different direction to collect as much map data as possible, and a message will be sent to everyone if they find the boss room. If no-one finds it by a certain point in time, we will probably all meet up and collect the map data together.

Another thing is, there are a few chests in the Labyrinth, with so many people together, it will cause chaos within the group. Better not to risk it.

Your recommendation is what would be ideal, but, resources are becoming scarce, who knows how long that might take. We do have the boss's information from the Guidebook, so someone is probably already thinking about how to deal with this type of situation will probably organize the raid party, and be giving out the orders, and giving out the plan.

Anyway, we still have over an hour before the meet up. Fujiwara will probably be sleeping for a while longer, so I think we should leave him a message. My biggest worry is ..." Umichi's speech trailed off, turning to Timi. "I'm worried about leaving her here, but I'm worried about bringing her." He sighed, continuing to eat.

[MarshiestMallow]

Suki sighed when Umichi asked what happened outside "just a group of boys, evidently the ones that had been chasing Timi out of town. I was just going to take Timi inside, but her reaction..." Suki sighed, looking towards Timi who was still happily woofing down the breakfast. Suki smiled, then shrugged returning to her own food, falling silent.

Paka nodded and took some food, starting to eat, but he seemed troubled. He listened as the others spoke, "I don't think we should go today. Fujiwara needs to rest, and we need to gather data as well as who we will be working with, as well as get through all the levels" he shrugged "but I guess we can see what happens" he pushed his plate aside as he finished.

When Umichi addressed what to do with Timi, Timi looked up, clearly worried about what they would do with her "I want to come" she said without any hint of fear, "please don't leave me behind...I don't want to sit her wondering what's going on, and if any of you will come back..." She looked down at her food, and swallowed.

"I'll make sure she's safe" Suki said at once "she's got good armor now, and a good weapon. Her agility stats will keep her safe, because she can move fast. Timi will be okay. I've been making health potions so there's enough for everyone to have a good haul. It will be okay" she said, not wanting to leave Timi behind, worried about the boys trying to run her off again or cause Timi trouble. She ruffled Timi's hair, and gave the girl a smile.

"The kid made it here, and survived in town and outside of town for a while. Which shows she can look after herself, and that she's smart to either run, or use her speed to her advantage. We can get her a shield too" Paka said, "she may be young, but she is still in the same position as all of us, just because she's a kid doesn't change it. If she's a part of the team, then she comes"

[InvariantName]

I have a friend... Sanshain kept repeating this in his head over and over. Angelo was the first friend he had made in 3 or 4 years. All his other friends left. they all moved and Sanshain could never find anybody else to hang out with him. He was the last kid left in his friend group. He was the only kid left in the computer club, video game club and fantasy club at his school. Meaning everybody else in the school, wasn't really interested in that stuff. And, yet again, another reason he started playing video games. In video games he found that he could connect with people. Because, most everybody liked the things he liked.

He looked away from Angelo as a tear rolled down his cheek. Sanshain quickly wiped it off and turned back to Angelo. "Let's go get some equipment. I still need some of those crystals." Sanshain began walking, Angelo following by his side back to the town of beginnings. "So, do you have any other friends trapped in this game?"

nope have none that like games like I do" Angelo said softly only saying part of the truth that he hardly had any friends to speak of but the friends that he did have weren't really friends because they liked Angelo but simply because they worked together as nurses. Angelo followed him to the town of beginnings wondering why they would go back here instead of tolbana, yeah the town of beginnings was larger but the crystals anyone could get from a npc or player with the alchemist role willing to sell what they got. "Why are we at the town of beginnings though? you can get the crystals from just about anywhere and we need to start leveling up if we want other people to join us in getting through the levels. Although I think you and me are strong enough together as is" Angelo said smiling at the guy glad he could make someone that would want to work with Angelo but the spear and katana combo could really work, shame that guy hated Angelo guts for stealing from one of his friends even if it was just to get their attention

[FujiwaraPhoenix]

Ayame shrugged as Umichi reasoned how her ideal scenario probably wouldn't work out. It made sense, though; people were people, and they'd certainly be fighting over treasure if it was valuable to them.
"I guess it can't be helped, then." she said before eating a piece of bacon as the topic shifted to bringing Timi to the front lines or not. Ayame looked at Suki and Paka in a bit of confusion at their statements before making her own statement.
"Although I can see where everyone's coming from, psychology's going to have a very heavy impact if we bring Timi along with us. Though in your eyes she may seem capable, we as humans will instinctually move to protect the young from harm. I can't say that her coming with us would be a bad idea and all, but we do have to remember that we're going to have to completely trust her actions and treat her as an equal, not just someome to be guarded as they do their job. It's... Inefficient, from what I can visualize. If we're able to manage that, then I'm fine and why the heck am I sounding like Fujiwara this is weird. I swear his tactical lectures every night are rubbing off on me." Ayame said, shaking her head. "I'm not really opposed to it, but we can't treat her differently in terms of combat scenarios. That's my only issue; if we can overcome that, then I think we've definitely gotten closer to the mutual trust that a well-functioning group needs to perform at their peak. Hooray for social relations classes!"
Smiling as she finished her giant statement to the party, Ayame continued eating her breakfast at a rather leisurely pace, waiting for everyone else to either agree on a course of action or continue their debates. Whatever the case was, Ayame was ready to continue on. After all, keeping the team together was the top priority. On that note, she added a little comment before returning to her meal.
"Putting that aside for a second, do you think we'll be able to form a guild with the people we know? It'd make things a lot more organized, to be sure."

[Little_ninja]

Sighing, Umichi leaned onto his left hand, resting his chin on his palm and his elbow on the table. "I know all of that. It's just I am worried. Maybe ..." he trailed off. Closing his eyes for a moment, he continued, "Never mind actually. Shields huh ... Anyway, as you said Paka, Fujiwara needs to rest and we need to get to know the others. Either we go and let Fujiwara rest here or some of us stay and a couple of us go and represent the group. I mean we should show our faces, and also I doubt we will fight a boss yet. I think most of today will be exploration and strategy meeting.
So, I'll let you guys think about whether we all go today, with Fujiwara resting here, or we split up for now."

Finishing his breakfast, Ayame asked about forming a guild. "Organized you say ..." Umichi took a deep breath. "A guild of 10-15 could be kept organized, but, if it ends up expanding, things can get complicated and unorganized. I don't mind if we do form a guild, in fact it would be a pretty good idea. Right now though, I don't think we have the col for it and I am not sure when we are able to make a guild. If we make a guild though ... Someone else be the leader of it." Umichi finished his opinion, indicating his feeling of incompetence to lead a guild.

[MarshiestMallow]

Timi glared at Ayame as she spoke about her as if she wasn't there. She sighed, and riffled through her inventory quickly, and as Ayame finished speaking, and Umichi began, Timi looked about, and then as Umichi finished speaking, Timi raised a hand with a throwing knife in it, and threw it towards a clock, where it struck just as the minute hand reached the twelve.

It lay there quivering a minute, and she said "I can look after myself. You don't need to worry about me. So please stop talking about me as if I'm not here. I may be a kid, but I've had to survive out here for a few weeks. Yes, I got overwhelmed in the labyrinth, but...I can handle myself. I don't want to be left behind. If you make me stay behind, I'll just follow along at the back" she crossed her arms, looking like a stubborn young kid, and stuck her tongue out at them all, before staring at them all, as if daring them to challenge her.

"She's right there. We can't tie her to a bed, that would be against the games rating after all Paka yawned, pushing away his empty plate saying "and you can't make guilds until the third floor. Probably something about not wanting to be too powerful or some such too doing" he shrugged, "I honestly think it's too soon to try and attack the boss just yet. But I think we can see whose there and learn who we will continually see as we make our way up the levels" he said rising "let me know what you decided, I have a few things to do" he said softly, saying goodbye, and heading out the in. He wandered to the market place, deep in thought.

What was he doing here? His own attitude had led Fujiwara to nearly get himself killed, and Paka would never forgive himself for that. He just wanted to be able to help everyone, but he didn't even seem to succeed in that. He sighed. He didn't seem to have a place in this world. Even Suki seemed to be leaving him behind as he struggled to stay up to everyone else.

Suki had began to send a PM to Shinobu, one of the group they had met who was organising this meeting, saying that they were interested, but they had only got into Tolbana the day before and that they had misgivings about fighting the boss just now.

It was minutes later that she got a reply, and she looked up. "Shinobu says that not too many groups have arrived at Tolbana yet and that she and her friends were just trying to jump the gun. They'd still like to meet up, but are happy to do so here instead" she said watching Paka leave the inn

[Little_ninja]

Rubbing his eyes with his left thumb and index finger, Umichi muttered, "Almost just like her." sighing afterwards. He muttered softly so others would not hear it, unless someone had a decent level <<Listening>> skill. This is probably similar to how Paka feels in regards to Suki. Except Timi is just similar to her instead of being her. Frustrated at his own actions slightly, Umichi kept thinking for a moment. Well, either all kids are the same, all kids I meet are the same, or I am just getting everything mixed up. May as well see how treating her like that will be. Paka then spoke about making guilds, and left, Umichi called out, "Alright, catch you later."

Standing up and walking to the clock, he spoke, "It's not like we were talking as if you were not here. I choose to bring it up with you here because that's how the party works. We talk to each other, and listen. It would be pointless if you were not here when we spoke about it. Hell, for all we know, you might not have wanted to come with us at all. That is always a possibility." Pulling out the knife, he continued, while tossing it up in the air and catching the knife and walking back.

"Well, knowing that you are a kid is something most kids won't admit. If you don't want to be left behind, do not talk about being able to handle yourself." Umichi spoke sternly, as if lecturing, standing next to Timi. Suddenly he smiled, "Since you are a kid, it's fine to be a little spoiled. We won't leave you behind, we might need time to ourselves a bit, but you won't be alone. You don't need to handle things by yourself. Being in a party means to help each other. So, you don't have to try doing things by yourself." Reaching out his hand, he patted Timi, softly, gently. He was used to doing this. The way he was patting was soothing and comfortable for most.

Hearing Suki talk about Shinobu, Umichi replied, "Well, all they said before was that they had found the 20th floor. I thought she wanted to expedite the floor mapping. Anyway, either way, I doubt we would just fight the boss right now so suddenly. What we would need to do is at least wait until tomorrow, and clarify the plan today. Anyway, I guess all we can really do is wait." He stopped patting Timi and placed her throwing knife on the table in front of her. "No more throwing these in buildings or towns." He warned her. Walking back to his seat and sitting down, he asked, "Well, since they are coming to us and will probably only talk for a couple of hours, what shall we do for the day? Labyrinth or questing?"

[FujiwaraPhoenix]

Ayame was taken aback at Timi's aggressive response, confused as to why she would have such an outburst all of a sudden. Timi seemed to be glaring at her, which was weird. She had stated multiple times that she wasn't opposed to her joining- did that go flying right over her head?

"I never said anything about you NOT being able to handle yourself; why are you suddenly getting so defensive about it? I wasn't referring to you, I was referring to everyone else." she said, thinking that the display of skill was directed towards her. "There's no need to get so aggressive."

Sighing, she watched as Umichi attempted to calm down Timi before listening to Suki talk about meeting with the other groups and Umichi about the choices for the day.
"Well, if resources ARE running low then the labyrinth is probably the best place to go for today. With all the drama that's been happening lately I'm not sure if either place is preferable to me, though. I'll leave it up to you to decide."

[MarshiestMallow]

Timi sighed, but she stayed quite, taking her knife back. She dropped her head in the typically child way of being shamed, But she shook her head, "The party that I came here with just left me. I-I don't want that to happen again. The older boys are mean, and..." She just wanted her parents, but saying that would make her seem like a cry baby, and she didn't want that.

Her voice was resigned, as if she was use to these things, and in fact, Timi was. Shy, and easily excitable, Timi was sometimes considered odd in school, and didn't have many friends, if any. She typically spent her hours reading, so the promise of the game for good grades wasn't hard for Timi to do, with no, or very little, social life, she had poured her heart and soul into her school work, earning more ridicule and bullying, but she didn't care. Games had a way of taking everything away, and making it seem better, but since playing Sword Art Online, it had just seemed like the real world.

"And I just don't want to be treated like a little kid" She continued, surprised at how true the words were. "I'm not scared of the monsters, or anything. Just people" She put the knife away, and brought her knees up, wrapping her arms around them.

Suki's heart ached for Timi. In the real world, Suki had her brothers to look after her, to stop bullying and things like that, but little Timi didn't seem to have had that, and then ending up trapped...Suki just wanted to bundled the girl up and tell her it would be okay, that she wasn't alone anymore. Instead, she sighed and said, "Resources aren't running low, it just seems that way because people use the same spawning areas, and tend to stay in the same area. I think most people who are in Tolbana would go to the Labyrinth, making it crowded and limiting the monster battles, I think, but we need to get use to fighting the Kobolds....maybe we can go into the Labyrinth after dinner-I think most people would return to town by then, and until then, find a quest, or a good area with boars and wolves?"

"Well, I need Crystals. Where do you recommend I get them." Sanshain said to Angelo. "We may be strong but we can't take the risk. there is a difference between strength and stupidity. Not saying you're stupid!" Sanshain didn't want to Offend his friend. "But, I'd rather have them not need them then need them not have them. Know what I mean?"

Sanshain spoke smoothly hoping he didn't offend Angelo. Sanshain knew they were pretty strong, even for level one players. But, they weren't strong enough. Him and Angelo needed to train and level up quickly. So, that they could defend against PVP and monsters that were around the floor. "So, after I get my crystals we need to train and Level grind, so to speak. We need to be prepared for anything."

um you do realize I don't take offense to everything you say right? im okay with a stupid or dumb comment here and their as long as you don't mean them or use them to often. Im also not saying we shouldn't get stuff im just saying we could have gotten them from a village that was closer then the town of beginnings back where we were called tolbana, I also got crystals if you needed some." Angelo said looking at his friends level and seeing that he was a level one and that explained why the guy was so jumpy not to get rid of Angelo so Angelo patted his shoulder gently "look we will get stronger I wont let anything happen to you and we wont stop being friends if we get into a fight or something." Angelo said going to a potion shop and buying some crystals that he then sent a trade request to him so he can give him what he needed "we need to level grind as quick as possible but I don't know the <<roar>> technique to call enemy to charge at us so we will mainly be depending on the system to give us good hunting

[Little_ninja]

"Are you doubting the Onii-san and Onee-san here Timi? Aww ... That's so mean!" Umichi said playfully to the girl, talking about being left behind and bullied. Hearing Suki and Ayame out he informed the group, "Resources out in the field are scarce, and eventually it will hit the labyrinth. Although since it was early when we were there earlier, soon, quite a number of people will be in the Labyrinth, some who don't belong. Due to the scarcity of enemies out in the field, quite a few lower level players have been in the Labyrinth recently, and in small groups. Leading to ... non-ideal circumstances." Checking the time, he wondered where Shinobu and their team was.

"I think doing a double whammy would be ideal. Find a quest that requires us to go into the labyrinth. By doing this, we can get a quest done for some extra exp and possibly items, while helping those who shouldn't be in the Labyrinth. What do you think of that? Oh, and how much longer till Shinobu gets here?" Umichi continued on with his opinion. Looking over to Yui, who was happily eating, but not participating, "Yui, you know, you can tell us your own opinion too you know? Why is it, that you don't speak up that much?"
